Ok im also new to this creating custom skins and such. I use btex and it works great with the already installed skins. BUT, i wanted to make my own that is pretty cool and i tried and had no idea what i was doing. So far i have this.

Its the final way i want it to look but i really dont know where to go from there. Ive been reading forums and tutorials and i cant follow any of them. I know theres something with alpha files and 4 different files?.... i wont go into it bt anyhow could someone give me a rundown on where to go from there?
